Description: Released four years after the Talking Heads called it a day with 1988's Naked, Popular Favorites provides a thorough overview of one of the most important American bands of the '80s. From tightly wound early efforts such as "Psycho Killer" and "Don't Worry About the Government" to the seriously funky likes of "I Zimbra" and "Burning Down the House," David Byrne, Jerry Harrison, Tina Weymouth, and Chris Franz grew as musicians as they stretched the original concepts of the unit to the breaking point. Over the course of two discs and 32 selections, the anthology chronicles the Heads' development from Bowery art punks (albeit of the most civil stripe) to unlikely arena stars. A smattering of unreleased tracks and notes from the original quartet nicely flesh out the retrospective. --Steven Stolder

Completely Perfect

This collection is so very perfect. Personally I'm not a huge fan of the late seventies heads, but still this collection is TRULY the best of the Talking Heads: Swamp, Burning down the House, Once in a Lifetime, And she was, This must be the place, Life during wartime, girlfriend is better, wild wild life. And best of all, this is the only actual CD I've seen so far that contains " Sax and Violins " the unreleased song which is personally my favorite Talking Heads of all time. I usually don't like greatest hits collections but this one has all the goods. The only track I wish they would have included is " Making Flippy Floppy ", so if you're interested in the talking heads music, get this one and " Speaking in Tongues "

Da Peace Dog hasn't got a clue

Well, Da Peace Dog gave me a splintering headache. He sounds like he never got past the second grade with his unnecessary point of David Byrne's brain. This collection of songs is great! I think it is a great retrospective from the nascent years of the Heads until they disbanded. Although, I would have liked to see "Pulled Up" from '77 on the disc, but it's not there. '77 is a greatest hits on it's own. This music is classic and colorful in it's art rock form. David Byrne's Rei Momo and Uh-Oh are my favorite solo albums. Amazing work. Unique. Groovy. Experimental. Solid.

What happened to real music?

So, I guess you would say I'm a jerk for saying this but what happened to music? I wasn't alive during the 80's and I have grown up with the "music" of the 90s and early 2000s. I don't really listen to it anymore because I have discovered that this is around. Honestly, find me a rap cd that has the contingency of "And she was", "Burning down the house", "Psycho Killer", or their cover of "Take me to the river". Talking heads are amazing. Their instruments sound GOOD together, not just like a heavy metal bang. Oh, and have you noticed there's actually a tune to the song, making it possible to whistle it? These two cds cover just about every category of loudness, some uprising, some moderate, and some that lull you to sleep. This is completely amazing that this one band is able to create such a beautiful, yes beautiful, mix of noise. do yourself a favor and buy this cd to save music!
